COUPLING DEVICE FOR SECURING A GAS DISCHARGE APPARATUS INSIDE A GAS DELIVERY CONDUIT OF A FLUID IMPERMEABLE LINER COVERING A LIQUID-RECEIVING BASIN
A device for securing a discharge end of a gas discharge apparatus inside a gas delivery conduit of a fluid impermeable liner covering a liquid-receiving basin features a first portion configured to be supported on the basin so as to engage an outer face of the liner which normally engages the basin and a second portion of the device configured to be movable relative to the first portion to selectively engage an inner face of the liner in opposite relation to the first portion in a working position. The inner face of the liner delimits the interior of the liner-covered basin. The first and second portions are configured to cooperatively form a generally tubular cavity substantially encompassing the gas delivery conduit in the working position, to clamp the gas delivery conduit over the discharge end of the gas discharge apparatus to substantially form a fluidic seal therebetween.
Portable ice spa
An ice boot spa system that is lightweight and portable to allow leg and ankle cooling in a mineral bath and optionally means to secure a foot to the spa and to provide proper foot support. It enables a portable means for cryotherapy that is self-contained and that can be used, in some embodiments, without an external power source or refrigeration means.
COMBINATION EMERGENCY WASH AND FAUCET UNIT
A combination emergency wash and faucet unit includes a base configured to be coupled to a sink, an emergency wash arm pivotally coupled to the base and including an emergency wash unit configured to dispense a first fluid, and a spout pivotally coupled to the base and configured to dispense a second fluid. The emergency wash arm is repositionable relative to the base between a stored position and an active position. The spout is repositionable relative to the base and the emergency wash arm. The spout is configured to move away from the active position of the emergency wash arm when the emergency wash arm is moved from the stored position toward the active position.
PEDICURE SYSTEM HAVING PEDICURE STATION AND COVER CONFIGURED TO FUNCTION AS A BATH
Disclosed is a pedicure system comprising a cover and a pedicure station, wherein the cover is removably connected to the pedicure system and is further configured to receive a human foot and function as a bath and the pedicure station includes a plurality of storage compartments.
Device for delivering mist to the human face
A device (1) for delivering mist to the human face is capable of targeting different kinds of mist to different zones of the human face. To this end, the device (1) comprises different nozzle sets, wherein each of the different nozzle sets serves for letting out a different kind of mist, and wherein each of the different nozzle sets is positioned in a zone (7, 10) of the device (1) corresponding to a zone of the human face to be treated by means of the mist delivered by the nozzle set concerned during operation of the device (1). By having an appropriate number and positioning of the nozzles (2, 3, 4, 5), facial zones can be treated separately, wherein it is possible to realize optimal skin treatment per facial zone.
Portable relaxation therapy massage device for the head
The present invention administers fluid therapy and chromotherapy to the head of a user for stimulatory purposes. Particularly, the invention comprises a portable device for administering fluid therapy using pressurized water and/or other therapeutic fluids and/or substances to massage and relax the head and scalp of the user while simultaneously allowing the use of craniofacial chromotherapy thus providing a generally relaxing and refreshing stimulative experience for the head.
Method of administering nanoparticles through feet
A therapeutic nanoparticle diffusion system includes at least one rubber bootie; a foot bath; and a nanoparticle composition. The rubber bootie is adapted to accommodate a user's foot and the nanoparticle composition. The foot bath has a predetermined height, a vibrational base, and a heating element attached. A therapeutic method of administering nanoparticles includes providing the bootie and the foot bath; adding water to the foot bath; donning the bootie; resting the foot and the bootie in the foot bath; adding a nanoparticle composition to the bootie; activating the heating element and the vibration element; resting the subject's foot in the nanoparticle composition; doffing and emptying the bootie into the foot bath; and soaking the subject's foot in the foot bath. The temperatures and times are predetermined.
